b2evolution 4.0.0-alpha released
We are happy to annonce that b2evolution version 4.0.0-alpha has been released.
Finally! you may say... but we're pretty confident the new features were worth the wait 
There is really a lot under the hood!
The list of new features has been previously published and is available here.
This new release has been tested on a number of different web hosts and those tests are globally conclusive. However, there are two small pending issues:
- HostGator has some overly restrictive security rules in place. These affect v4 but also v2 and v3. They are working on a fix that does not require any modification to b2evo. Update: HostGator fixed their rules. It's working now.
- BlueHost seems to have some buffering issues that only appear on specific pages of the backoffice. We are investigating this.
The vast majority of webhosts have been tested flawlessly.
However, please do keep in mind this is alpha software and that it's a major new release. Despite extensive testing, there will be issues and you may need to dig into the PHP code to fix them quickly. At this point we only recommend that you upgrade if you don't mind a little bit of experimentation

Thank you for releasing the 4.0 alpha. I installed it on my blog at http://garysicard.com and wanted to know where I can post some feedback. I have so far only discovered two errors that I don't think are significant but wanted to share them. I did not see a place in the forum to post on version 4. 
Uh... no crossposting setting in the backoffice yet? Mass editing possible but mass deletion impossible?
Is multiblog navigation corrected now?
So many questions, so much fear to break it...
Gary: I created a forum for 4.x bug reports.Sebastian: Crossposting CAN be enabled/disbaled in the backoffice.
Mass delete and better multiblog navigation are on the todo list.
Thank you sir. I will post a detailed description shortly. Nothing major so far. b2Evolution is a splendid example of great coding. I love it. hello Francois. My issues are related to bluehost - not with your script. Excellent work.Gary
Gary do you have errors at the bottom of the page at blue host? I've seen some of these on the blue host test site, only in the admin. If you find how to fix this by changing blue host options, please let me know. This post has 2 feedbacks awaiting moderation...
